Jurgen Klopp believes Liverpool are still in the race for the top four but will only get there if the players stay "angry" and maintain a level of consistency in their performances.

Victory over Manchester City on Wednesday lifted the Reds to within six points of their fourth-placed opponents and that night Klopp praised their reaction after losing to Manuel Pellegrini's side on penalties in the Capital One Cup final three days previously.

Liverpool's real problem has been their consistency, with a regular string of injuries being a significant contributing factor.
